Peranakan Peony

Peranakan Peony celebrates the stunning beauty of this feminine flower. Peonies are a traditional symbol of royalty, rank and honour in Chinese culture. Inspired by the work of Eurasian batik designer Eliza van Zuylen, this print edition is a fusion of Chinese, European and Indonesian cultures.

Japanese woodblock printing was used to create 50 unique prints in this limited variable edition. Each artwork was printed by hand using hand carved timber blocks, watercolour pigments, a bamboo baren and Japanese washi paper.

Two timber blocks were used in this print.

The prints in this series are unique, and cannot be reproduced to order.
